Would love to see you cast the same game from your point of view

@@hp4546 I didnt record my POV unfortunately but I could cast it normally. I can say that Postal and Coolnick made me work very hard this game lol.

I was struggling to keep up with it all. There was a lot of space, complete with sea, air and land. A lot to do!

Awesome! Welcome!

Units in this game are situational. There are situations where each is good, this map and game time and terrain etc just merits these particular units this time

If this game had locked up you would have seen a few other units popping up. Unit choice is usually dictated by the map meta. GPP is and always has been dominated by EMG units for raiding, with missile towers for territory control.

@@BreezyCastsTM gg goat 🗿 u sneaked stupid peewees in my corner so good even posty couldnt see it

In Skirmish you can build anything, but I think the default AI will limit itself to the standard factories. Also in the campaign you'll only be able to build the downward facing shipyards because of the unit restriction.

Millenniums had similar range to Conquerors in OTA with no depth charge at a greater cost. I'm not sure if they would have changed things much here. In all my years of OTA, I don't think I ever saw someone build a Millennium seriously.

The Bertha had fortification walls on it, and an adv con ready to guard it. The bombers would have helped, but probably not enough to bring it down.

You can self destruct a mex instantly but there is still some micro involved. You can line build rather than separately

It does have some QOL additions. Unfortunately metal extractors you have to either reclaim them or self destruct (which is instant for extractors) to build the t2 extractor. This part takes a good amount of micro on a map like this. You can build things in lines by using the X key and use the scroll wheel to add spacing in the lines.

@@BreezyCastsTM That's cool that it has some of them implemented! I think that's the strength of something like Spring, but the atmosphere and feeling of TA is unmatched by all the newer additions imo. :) GG

somehow didn't see the transport when he marked all the labs lol. a snipe on the actual hulk would've been EPICO.

@@BreezyCastsTM truuuue

The Recorder has a function that allows for a "whiteboard." This allows you to draw lines, or put dots on the map to keep track of where things are. For example you can see Andy and Silencer scribbling on the map to mark where the solars are in the beginning.

Interesting. I did the exact same thing for both videos settings wise. The only difference is how I uploaded them to youtube. I think I can lock it down for future videos.

Practice vs multiple ai, like 8 on 1, if you need to give yourself bonus resources, i've gone #1 on ladder on tons games just by practicing a ton vs overwhelming ai to develop twitch/muscle memory reflex to respond or develop more thinking under pressure/attention span to spare. If you just play against humans you're getting a lot more shifty kill moves, even if you do games with NR15 or NR20, which learning the bullshit kill moves (flying off the map) is required but at least you'll be able to respond broadly after having the capacity built up from playing against tons of ai. Once you feel like managing attacks on lots of fronts from ai is easy then move back over to 1v1's with players.

I'm actually rather inept when it comes to how my streaming software works. We are limited by the resolution of the game on my monitor. One of these days I need to look into things like bitrate and how to go about getting better quality.

@@TotalAnnihilationReplays all good :) On 1440p monitor I couldnt read the banter on the ingame chat. Thanks for the recents casts, your explainations of how to balance economy and units is some of the best.

@@hp4546 I think he's on a strange really old monitor, because the game/mod run at over 1080p for me just fine.

@@Avelanche Run TA on 1440p 34 inch ultrawide here. Works just fine, only complaint is that all the units get pretty tiny haha.

It'd be good to see some new faces!

I second that!

Hard to say. Probably about half of games of OTA on this map involved at least one player who was air. Wind is really good there, and rushing out a sub-2 minute bomber is a possibility.

Happy to have you whenever!

Good to hear! I'm never the best at troubleshooting this sort of thing, but I can usually point folks in the right direction.

"Oulok trees"? They give _metal,_ not energy?
